Amharc ar fhreagraThere are no plans to merge the Irish Rail Infrastructure team with the National Roads Authority and the Railway Procurement Agency. In line with Government plans to rationalise the number of State agencies, the Government recently approved proposals for the merger of the NRA and RPA to create a single body which will be responsible for delivering and maintaining road and light rail infrastructure.
